Jason Roy has been dropped from England’s squad for the T20 World Cup in October and for their tour of Pakistan later this month after a poor run of form with the Bats.

Roy has struggled this summer, scoring just 78 runs in six T20 internationals, averaging 12.66. He also started his Hundred campaign for the Invincible Rugby with three ducks in four innings.

Phil Salt, who played four T20Is and eight internationals in one day – scoring his first century goal against the Netherlands in June – was named in both teams and could replace Roy along with White ball captain Jos Buttler at the top of the order, or maybe there’s a promotion for Jonny Bairstow.
